As we age our epidermis begins to sag and wrinkle. Aging, especially if it occurs sooner than expected, can be a source of anxiety for some people. The good news is, that younger and fresher skin is only a simple procedure or over-the-counter product away.
Skin peels work to remove dead epidermis cells on the surface of your face, and as a result they expose the fresher and younger cells beneath. This creates a younger and fresher look. It is important to note that these procedures and products can be applied to any section of your epidermis, but they are most commonly used on the face to combat aging.
Skin peels involve the application of chemical products to the target area. The chemical compounds work to exfoliate the epidermis leaving a softer and fresher look in its wake. If you see a medical professional for a chemical exfoliation procedure, then you will be seeing an esthetician.
An esthetician will utilize either an Alpha Hydroxy Acid or a Beta Hydroxy Acid. Alpha Hydroxy Acids are chemical compounds that work to exfoliate the skin by breaking down the "glue" that binds the epidermis cells together. This particular chemical compound is often formulated from glycolic acid derived from sugar, lactic acid derived from milk, or malic acid derived from apples. Beta Hydroxy Acids also work to exfoliate the surface of the epidermis in the way Alpha Hydroxy Acids do, but they are also lipid-soluble, which allows these chemicals to penetrate deeper into the epidermis and break up oily blockages.
The strength of the chemicals used for exfoliation are regulated on the state level in the United States. This means that the strength of these exfoliation chemicals can vary drastically from state to state. If you want a younger look, visit with your esthetician to discuss your options for chemical exfoliation. Procedures administered by a doctor tend to be a more intense experience and the recovery time associated with these procedures varies.
Skin peels are only left on your epidermis for a couple of minutes, but the target area will probably be red and sensitive. If you are in a medical setting, there will be a therapist nearby with a chemical neutralizer and a damp towel to relieve the pain. Be sure to tell your medical professional if the pain associated with the procedure is or becomes unbearable. Post-peel your skin will be extremely sensitive, so don't forget to wear sun-screen and wear wide brim hats to protect yourself.
